The European Young Chemists' Network (EYCN) together with the Portuguese Young Chemistry Group from the Portuguese Chemistry Society (SPQ) are pleased to announce the 11th EYCN Delegates Assembly, which will take place in the historical and beautiful city of Guimarães - Instituto Design Guimarães, Portugal from 26th to 30th April 2016.
EYCN is the younger members division of the European Association for Chemical and Molecular Sciences (EuCheMS). Every chemist under 35 within the EuCheMS framework is part of EYCN. Today EYCN represents 26 European chemical societies from 22 different countries and two affiliated members (American Chemical Society and Israel Chemical Society). Every year, the EYCN organizes a meeting with all the national representatives: the EYCN Delegates Assembly.
This initiative is aimed to strengthen the links between the young chemists from all over Europe. This meeting aims to reinforce the development of networks between young chemists, harnessing in particular their communication and working skills. In addition, it will point towards new professional opportunities and help motivating the entrepreneurship of the young and early career participants.
